not the point

Yesterday morning we found ourselves witness to a beautiful, red-tinged sunrise while driving along the highway. I looked over and watched a huge yet slender-looking wind turbine on the horizon, turning silently in the red sunrise.

I told Mark that that had to be the most elegant renewable power source I could think of. He was silent a minute, and then said "what about if you harnessed two distant objects in the universe together and generated energy from the outward expansion of those objects away from each other, that originated with the big bang?" or something along those lines.

All I wanted to say was that the wind turbines were pretty.

that would be pretty...leave it to Mark to put all sorts of weird pictures in your head and mess up the beauty in the world. :D

On a side note...Kristina & Jeff are looking into fostering a dog through Victoria Adoptables. His name is Oliver. Check him out.

You guys comment on the weirdest posts.

Taras: Hello Kitty, while pretty, is not elegant. But I would like to see that sight.

Dennis: did you know the guy whose fault it was?

Kristie: you are right.

Megan: He's exactly Kristina's type - the "shaggy old man"-looking dog, only bigger than I would have predicted they'd take in. I hope it happens!! It would be great for them to start with a nice senior guy like that!

Anyway, hope y'all are doing well.
